(92-94) Neal Martin The 2022 Morey-Saint-Denis Aux Chesaux 1er Cru is very delineated and harmonious on the nose, with blackberry and wild strawberry fruit, crushed rock and light dried rose petal scents from the whole bunches. The medium-bodied palate has a fresh, saline entry, beautifully structured with gentle grip. Darker fruit surfaces toward the finish with hints of candied orange peel and blood orange. Excellent.
Wine Safari Score: 94-95+/100 Greg Sherwood MW. An utterly stunning aromatics showing truly seductive notes of freshly baked blueberry crumble, salty oyster shell and creme de cassis nuances. Wonderfully plush, broad and fleshy in the mouth, the concentration and fruit focus is impressive, expertly caressed into a dense, creamy textural wine with great balance, velvety tannins and an understated power on the finish.
